Im in Hampton, VA I got movement to prepared for shipping and had my account charged on monday for my 38 aluminum blue band. i know that is not your model but just FYI VA is getting some movement....I need to know if anypone in VA has gotten Shipping Info

~~~
Hampton, VA here as well. Card charged, Watch is Preparing for Shipping - as of yesterday. No movement since.
On the flip side, my extra charger will be delivered today.
:eek:
 
Still no movement on my 12:03 order, although my wife's 12:04 order is tracking for a Friday delivery lol oh well.

Both Black 42mm sports with back bands - Texas.
 
St. Louis, Missouri here. My 42mm SS ML was charged and switched to preparing for shipment on 4/20. Don't want to make assumptions, but really hope this means I can look forward to Friday!
 
Yea I think you are right...there also have been reports of movement around 10am est so that points to an early plane coming in carrying watches...therefore upon checking the UPS flights I see a plane comes in everyday around 9:00a est this may be the flight carrying watches to Tennessee. The flight today will arrive at 9:01a est today So let's see if we get some movement around 10:30 or so...we should... If not..on to 5pm est...the wait is torture.

AAaRRRGGHH what does that even say?

I'm using google translate
"Shipping preparation" during delivery date: 4 / 24-5 / 8: Super Saver Shipping
 
Awesome!! Im waiting on these planes to land for UPS to see if the watches are getting shipping info

~~~~~
Me as well!!!!! And, so nice to meet someone here from our neck of the woods. When we do get our watches, we'll have to add each other's contact info so we can send messages from our watches... None of my acquaintances, friends or family are buying a watch.
 
Hello everyone, I have been lurking and reading these forums for a long time and have been through quite a few apple releases, but none quite like this one.

Like many of you I preordered at 3:02 AM and received my confirmation at 3:03 AM for the 42mm SS with Classic Buckle. I was ecstatic Monday when I was finally charged and moved into "Preparing for Shipping" and my CC has been charged. However, that has been it. I have checked the My UPS thing, and unfortunately the only thing that is showing up is the extra charger cord I ordered.

Should I be worried yet? Does "Preparing for Shipment" basically mean Friday at some point I should have the watch in my (on my) hand? LOL I know this has been asked over and over and I appreciate you taking the time to read my post and respond!
 
Sure!! It would be fun to have someone that I can actually communicate with using the watch. No one I know is getting one except for my cousin out in Maryland

Someone on this thread created this website :
http://sharetheheartbeat.com/index.html
When you sign up they give you a password and randomly send you other people that will have the apple watch that you can send heart beats to and what not..
 
Have we actually determined they are in Tennessee waiting for you guys? On both Monday and Tuesday things started to happen in the US around 5pm EST. Which also corresponds to 4 large planes landing in Anchorage everyday...
Wouldn't it be safer to assume that once these planes land a Bill of Lading is scanned officially passing them through US customs and putting them in the states. Its at that time a shipping label is created from your local distribution warehouse. Its just UPS\FedEx job to get that pallet to the local distribution center from Anchorage to Louisville\Memphis to your local distribution center.
Just an educated guess with my experience in logistics, but I'm thinking your watch is actually at 31k feet right now :D

I suppose that could be. I am just going by what My UPS is telling me as to where it is coming from. I don't really see why it would say coming from Mount Juliet, TN if it wasn't already there but I guess it is possible.
 
Aus shipping

Adelaide has had movement as well, don't forget about us :)

Sydney has had movement, my order has moved from processing to prepare for shipment and i am from sydney.

people from sydney in other threads are saying that their 4-6 week estimate was changed to shipping and their cards have been charged as well.

talk about under promising and over delivering.
 
yea about 50,000 yen!!!!! :eek::eek::eek::eek:
whats that about $1000 USD?

Whats up with that system anyway? Why does it seem everything cost so much like 15,000 yen is like $300USD? am I wrong...thats what I was seeing on the BAPE website a few years ago

----------



Cool!! so how do we like link our watches to someone? do we have to add them to contacts like facetime sort of?

----------

Greatest idea ever!!! a social media site for apple watch users!!!! who wants to make 1 billion dollars with me?

Actually I googled and it shows 50000 yen is equivalent to $418 US

It'll come from there, just saying it doesn't necessarily mean its there yet. I'm sure your shipping label says 4/23 on it... It has until tomorrow to sort through this logistics nightmare to make it to Mount Juliet

I don't believe you have anything to worry about. You should have your watch Friday...

Those of us who are still in the doomed processing phase - with no updates or card charges yet. We might have to start worrying if we don't see any movement by this evening.
 
For those of us in the US holding onto hope with no status change and no charge, here's some hopeful Alaska arrivals today... Of course the last three in bold are the best bets.
